{"product_id":"the-amateur-astronomer-9781852338787","title":"The Amateur Astronomer","description":"Writing in the easy-going style that made him famous as a writer and broadcaster, Sir Patrick introduced astronomy and amateur observing together, so that his reader gets an idea of what he is observing at the same time as how to observe. This brand new edition of Sir Patrick Moore's classic book - it has been going since 1957, with many revisions - has been completely updated in the light of changes in technology. Not only do these changes include commercially available astronomical telescopes and software, but also what we know and understand about the universe. There are many new photographs and illustrations. The hugely comprehensive appendices provide hints and tips, as well as data (year 2000 onwards) for pretty well every aspect of amateur astronomy. This is probably the only book in which all this information is collected in one place. Amateur astronomers at every level will want this book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781852338787\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 293\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.39h x 6.42w x 0.92d","brand":"Patrick Moore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44337780949173,"sku":"9781852338787","price":46.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_ff7d259f-0f85-4dff-a390-8568538c63cd.jpg?v=1719329172","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-amateur-astronomer-9781852338787","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
